Durham denied third-day win by poor light against Gloucestershire

Play was halted on day three at Riverside Ground with Durham needing just four runs to complete victory against Gloucestershire in County Championship Division Two. Poor light stopped proceedings before Durham could chase down the target.

Durham had dominated proceedings throughout the match and were on the verge of their third win of the season. The weather interruption prevented what would have been a comfortable victory for the home side.

The match will resume on day four if conditions permit. Durham remain well placed to secure the victory when play continues.
